The Montney is certainly attractive. It has been an area of focus for many energy companies. Ultimately what is attractive, is an LNG solution at some point. His only concern on this company is that it is a gas weighted name. There is really no catalyst for gas other than the seasonality. It has been a weak, weak time in general. He sees both gas and oil trading sideways for the next year.
Natural gas has done very well because of a very, very cold April. The massive surface of gas storage has been whittled down to a deficit now, quite significantly. We are now in the shoulder season where weather is pretty tempered, so it is not until the summertime when it gets really warm that we burn a lot of gas to meet air conditioning needs. This stock is approaching levels that are pretty rich and wouldn’t be surprised if the company came to market to try to de-lever to ramp up CapX because they are sitting on a profitable liquids rich play. There are more attractive opportunities elsewhere.

Drilling some really interesting wells where the economics is really the condensate. This is really a play on oil prices coming back. When you look at the valuation versus a pure oil stock, it is trading at about a 2X lower multiple. Good value. Good management. Well hedged for 2015.
